lets just pray that the paint doesnt come off on your $1000 suit

after its completely dry, try put a soaked towel on there and see if the color comes off

Did you say that this treatment not only restores the appearence of the leather, but also helps to soften it again? Please reply, and thanks for posting this thread!

Yes it does. My seats were really stiff too. the softener worked well. I always used conditioner on them and it made the a little softer, but this stuff is way better. They can color match your seats on the site too!

Looks good keep a update of the progress of wear.

Do you have or can you take a pic with similar angle and lighting of the close up DS bolster in the first post? the other closeup is hard to make a definitive comparison because of the angle.

as close as you can to this one please

Iceman, any updates for us? How are the seats holding up after a few months?

Thanks

They still look much better than when I didnt paint them. The paint let go a little on the driver side bolster, but if i repaint them to fill in the cracks I bet it will fill in. Ovbesouly after you use the softener and paint the leather after the paint drys will be hard, after a few months of sitting in them small cracks will develope in the paint. I will repaint my drivers side and post some before and after shots again in the next week hopefully.
